Macintosh computers suck and so does the Apple corporation. They have nothing to say about advanced technology since they don't have any.
I'd like to see NASA privately funded through R&D for various companies, or other interested parties. Whether or not that included tourism is up in the air. I'd like to see us travel to mars in the next 20 years using the new shuttle with the new propulsion system designed a few years ago.
NASA could be profitable if they did missions to orbit sattelites or to fix ones already in orbit and through doing the R&D mentioned previously. With their profits I'd like to see advances in medicine, etc.
I don't think we can gain much by colonizing the moon. I don't know anyone who would choose to live there if we did. But if we could use minerals or things like that to improve life on earth, I'd be all for it. Eventually (long after I'm dead) it would be cool if we could travel to another solar system and return.
